I RETURN WITH A FEELING OF US: THE PHOTOGRAPHY OF ANTHONY BARBOZA
This is the first retrospective exhibition of renowned photographer Anthony Barboza (b. 1944).
A New Bedford native of Cape Verdean descent, Anthony Barboza has, throughout his influential career, demonstrated a deep compassion for and interest in telling the stories of Black American life and communities of color worldwide.
THE SHAPE OF WHO WE ARE: EXPLORING IDENTITY
The New Bedford Art Museum presents the Shape of Who We Are: Exploring Identity, a juried showcase curated by Marcelle Joseph, an independent curator and collector.
In Shape of Who We Are, artists from across the globe explore how identity is formed, expressed, and reimagined through race, gender, class, culture, and personal history. These works invite us to reflect on what we choose to carry forward, what we leave behind, and the infinite ways we might become.
